persons who had criticised his conduct, he
said the policy OF tho Nationalist party did
not now include rapine. The demands ol
tho Nationalists had been moderated since
1881. It was not true that they desired to
dismember the Empire, and there was no
reason Why he should not approve OF their
conduct.
SPEECH At DERBY.
Gladstone addressed an audience OF no.
900 persons in tho drill hall at Derby. He
was supported by Sir William Vernon Har-
court and Baron Wolverton. Mr.. Glad
stone said their opponents were growing
ing stronger. He was accused of cooper
ating with those whom he once accused as
marching with rapine and murder towards
the disintesra ton Ct the Empire. All OBJ.
jections then presented have passed away.
He did not believe that any Irish Member
of Parliament row contemplated or desired
the dismemberlaent OF the Empire. They

Why should Ireland not do the came?
Gladstone said he believed the people OF
Ulster were simply laboriDg under a misun-
derstanding. They, no doubt, wanted as
sura nee that the connection between Ire
land and England would be maintained.
It was an utter mistake to suppose that any
action of the Liberal party would have
any other results. He believed that sat

which Ulster would be united with t he rest
OF Ireland. and that in the end all would
give willing obedience to the Queen. On

DENOUNCED BY CHURCHILL.
Lord Randolph Churchill in speech at
Sunderland to-day denounced as criminal

ment Of the church in Wales plank of the
Liberal platform IN return for the support
of his Irish scheme.
